Doctrines Of Grace | Celebrating The Protestant Reformation
Shared on: Oct 21, 2019
Many, many years ago, the Bible was a closed book and people lived in spiritual ignorance. The Gospel had been distorted and twisted into an ugly representation of what was once good news. But then, on a brisk Fall day in October 1517, an Augustinian monk nailed 95 Theses to the door of the castle church in Wittenburg, Germany protesting the Roman Catholic practice of selling indulgences. What happened next would trigger what many historians consider to be the greatest expansion of the Gospel in human history next to the birth of the early church. This movement would come to be known as the Reformation and today, over 500 years later, we are still experiencing the breadth and reach of this important epoch in history. The commitment to scripture and the bold courage of the Reformation leaders led people to rediscover the doctrines of grace which are the foundation of Christianity. Soli deo gloria!
